Tiger Shroff is the master of martial acts. His stardom depends on entirely on his fabulous dance moves and his panther-like stealth in action scenes. It wouldn’t be an exggeration to call him a biryani blend of Bruce Lee and Jackie Chaan. Here are the 5 films that took Tiger Shroff ’ s career to dizzying heights.
1. Heropanti(2014): Tiger Shroff’s debut film , a remake of the Telugu hit Parugu, was the Meme’s delight . Though his stunts and dancing were appreciated, Tiger was largely ridiculed for being way too effeminate . But producer Sajid Nadiadwala believed in Tiger. And Tiger believed in hard word, self-discipline and Nadiadwala’s belief in him. “ remember his words when the trolls ripped into his self-confidence. ‘Sir, I will work harder.’
2. Baaghi(2016): Two years later, Tiger Shroff struck back.A completely revamped adaptation of the Telugu hit Varsham Tiger Shroff played the role originally done by Prabhas. But the action here was vertical. He fought his way from floor to floor of a skyscraper to rescue his ladylove Shradha Kapoor from the villain Sudheer. More like the Gareth Evans directed The Raid Redemption than Varsham ,Baaghi showed the true birth of a new action star.
3. Baaghi 2(2018): After two full-fledged fiascos A Flying Jatt( Tiger Shroff ’s premature attempt to play a superhero) and Munna Michael(Chala Nawazuddin Michael Jackson ban-ne) Tiger scored bull’s eye.Again an official remake of a Telugu film Kshanam . In the original an NRI played by Adivi Shesh is called back to India by his former girlfriend to rescue her daughter from kidnappers. Baaghi 2 was far less tautly designed than its Telugu original. But the action was to die for. Upping the ante became Tiger Shroff’s muscular mantra. His fans ,mostly kids from the age of 9 to 14 couldn’t get enough of him.
4. War(2019): Tiger Shroff and his role model Hrithik Roshan shared screen space in a film that gave slickness a new definition. A fast-paced spy thriller War had Tiger matching strides with Roshan and even outdoing him at places. Barring the last twenty minutes War was a rollercoaster ride, a catchy cat-and-mouse bromance where the two protagonists Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff played the mentor-turned-tormentor and pupil with a large level of conviction and warmth. It was heartening to see Tiger keeping pace with Roshan, even though the latter used a lot of tricks to get our full concentration.
5. Baaghi 3(2020): Though the Franchise continues to be theme-driven by a kidnapping incident, Baaghi 3 is the first film in the series that is original. It is also Tiger Shroff ’s most ambitious film to date. This time he takes on an entire country, apparently Serbia. And brings the rogue nation down single-handedly when his beloved brother Ritesh Deshmukh disappears in the war-torn country. The stunts are so heart-in-the-mouth that you will find yourself jumping out of your seats on more than one occasion. Tiger’s already formidable stardom will go up my many notches after this.He is confident cool athletic agile and convincing as a one-man army.
